I just got a press release from the Vancouver Jewish Film Festival, announcing the films that will be part of their line-up March 30 – April 9. I haven’t had a chance to read it thoroughly yet, but the first title that catches my eye is Sophie Scholl: The Final Days, the true-story foreign-language-film Oscar nominee, about a Christian woman who stood up to Hitler’s regime. My friends Jeffrey Overstreet and Steven D. Greydanus assure me it is one of the year’s must-sees. It plays twice, April 2 & 3. (FWIW, click here for my thoughts on a few of the films I saw at last year’s festival.)
